[TenTec] signal on 28.634

[Ron Notarius]

Not much we can do but keep an ear on it for now.  I guess this happens when
you contract out your precision satellites to the lowest bidder...

Just remember, if the signal ever starts to diminish, as if it's turned into
a countdown, keep an eye on the skies and stash your CW key in a safe
place...

surprised noone has mentioned it anywhere sooner.. I figured it was some
laboratory licensed by the FCC to conduct their testing on that frequency..
BTW I am now in NJ by the shore and heard it when I lived in NY as well..

right over it as I have been for years.. Originally thought it was a birdie
but soon realized every rig cranked it out when I went there.. Since I used
SSTV right around that frequency its hard to miss... Regards,, Richy N2ZD
